About Us
As a not for profit community organisation, Joie De Vivre Ventures operates on the basis of putting positive mental wellness and routes to this at the core of our projects. It is through this that we take inspiration and reflection from individuals and similar organisations and we welcome collaboration.
The concept of Vegan Vybes, was born out of the desire to create plant based a nature inspired vehicles that could offer such help through social activities that serve the community through education and enterprise as well as focusing on the importance of mental wellbeing. Our interpretation of this is currently by offering Earth Gardens, Earth Markets and Earth food.
Earth Markets
Our monthly markets are a stella example of local environmental and plant based small businesses that demonstrate not only the diversity of products but their contribution to a more sustainable way of living.
Our way on connecting with local communities is through educational workshops, food and beverage offerings, mental health awareness and an opportunity for communication in our pop-up coffee shop. We have been really successful in creating a welcoming environment where every one is welcome.
We currently hold markets in Bearwood, Handsworth and Kings Heath however due to the current social distancing legislations in place, we are using the time to refine and build for when we return and we will keep you updated.
Earth Gardens
We have been afforded with the most wonderful opportunity to connect with the land in a way that supports the mental wellbeing in a very supported, safe and creative way. Our support however is guided towards those members of the African and Caribbean communities that need a space to reflect, to heal and to be vocal in a way that promotes growth.
We have two spaces in Birmingham that carries out our vision for the future. Phase one is in Handsworth is an aesthetic allotment space where we focus on beauty and pockets of inspiration which we will name after influencers in the history and culture whereas phase two of our project, based in our Witton site, focuses on growing organic and heritage seeded produce that supports nutritional health as well as supplying vegetation to the community and our Earth Market.
We also have fun in the process and encourage all generations to take part at their leisure.
Earth Food
The benefits of growing, preparing and eating plants is contained in many scientific studies however, we witness the benefits on a much more personal scale where we love to showcase range and diversity of the plant kingdom as well as how we can pleasure our tastebuds in a tasty and creative way.
We share this experience by way of workshops and demonstrations. exhibitions and catering opportunities. Our love of vegan cuisine is seen as our responsibility to be able to present healthy food that is affordable stimulating and packed full of healing energy. We want to connect with future generations to pave the way for a better way of eating.
Whilst we see the importance of what we do, how we deliver is based on the following:
Honesty, integrity transparency
Not to take ourselves too seriously
To remain professional yet personal in our conduct
To offer warmth and empathy
To work in a respectful environment
